XLC Hydraulic Brake Piston Press Tool

Excellent service - friendly, quick and good value

Many thanks. Perfect item good price and delivered promptly

Had some MK1 G forms when they first came to market and they were so comfortable however in big sliding type crashes they’d move and coverage used to be minimal. I’d been using POC air just knee pads for ages however with the advent of tapered trousers and an arthritic knee or two any compression around my knee was making it very uncomfortable to consider wearing anything. Roll on last ride out, two small slow speed dismounts ie crashes rendered my shins in tatters from the Time Speciale 8 pedals and pins and I landed on the one that found me fully on the floor on my arthritic knee to stones…..at which point I thought phew escaped that with no broken knee just bruising and much shin rubbing during the rest of the riding and cursing as I could feel the blood flowing and swelling.
Anyhow with discount code and on sale these were the best long coverage when I’d decided they were something I will wear under tapered trousers on every ride in real MTB terrain. Measured myself and compared it to the manufacturers sizing and I have to say it’s absolutely spot on for size!
It was a minor mission to get them over my size 12 feet and they pull up really high which with the strap I’m confident there will be no movement or migration of the pads in even a huge sliding dismount. The compression level was spot on with no feeling of my kneecap being pressed. The only down side I can foresee is they’re going to run pretty hot however they give really good shin coverage down to 6” sock level so I could probably get away with wearing shorts with them. (Have thinning sun damaged skin on lower legs and previous skin lesion elsewhere so have to cover up plus factor 50)……wear your sunscreen guys and gals!
I haven’t worn them in anger yet but I’m confident days of shredded shins and being overly concerned about a broken knee or two are gone for now. They’re rated for Enduro but not DH to be honest I’ll be wearing them for uplift days probably after starting out in hard shell race face last time on an uplift and second run switching to just the POC knees only. 59 not out…..yet!

I bought this pro-lite wheel-set to convert my 28" bike to 26" and I am very happy. The wheels are more than OK. For the money they are a bargain. Had to run an 8.5mm drill through the valve holes for schrader valves which took 2 minutes, peel the plastic film off the stickers, and brush some brass swarf of the nice strong rim tape. Two discs on and ready to go. My slow-witted, turns like a boat, useless bike has been transformed into a quick and lively sports machine that turns and stops as if by thought control. I am so happy that I will be getting another set for winter tyres next payday. Buy these.

Easy to order, had everything I needed..........delivery time was excellent.

Accurate stock notification on website, good price, good communication, prompt despatch & great product. Thanks.

Brilliant service from John, I needed the shipment delaying and he went out of his way too accommodate this, Royal mail though....

Will definitely be using them again

I am a professional mechanic, so I like quality tools. Shimano only offer a plastic pipe and not surprisingly, the threads wear out easily. So I purchased this adaptor, and I can highly recommend it. Its well made and finished and I expect it will last significantly longer than the Shimano version.

Good quality, good description so you know exactly what you buying, would recommend

Great service, parts arrived in under 24 hrs by Royal Mail. Thanks
